The correct answer is: Heartburn often results when the gastroesophageal sphincter fails to close properly.

The gastroesophageal sphincter is a muscle located at the bottom of the esophagus that has to be relaxed in order to allow food to flow down into the stomach. After it contracts (tightens), the food and the stomach acid can’t flow back up into the esophagus.

When the gastroesophageal sphincter fails to close properly acid reflux occurs and causes the heartburn.

Answer:

The right answers are mentioned in the picture.

A base pair (bp) is the pairing of two nucleobases located on two complementary strands of DNA or RNA. This pairing is carried out by hydrogen bridges. There are four types of nucleic bases: A-T-C-G, these letters Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. A with T and C with G.

It is also necessary to take into account the antiparallel character of the DNA strands. If a strand is in the 5 '3' direction, its complete strand is in the 3 '5' direction.

(a) (1 pt) Assume diastolic blood pressure is normally distributed in a certain population, with a mean of 82 mmHg and a standar
Natali [406]

Answer:

2.275% of this population has a diastolic blood pressure less than 60 mmHg

Explanation:

Hello!

Yo have the distribution of the diastolic blood pressure in a certain population. Be X: diastolic blood pressure of an individual, X~N(μ;δ²)

Where

μ= 82mmHg

δ=11 mmHg

You need to calculate the probability of an individual of this population having less than 60mmHg diastolic blood pressure.

Symbolically:

P(X<60)

To obtain the value of probability you need to standardize the value of diastolic pressure so that you can obtain it from the standard normal distribution. The way to standardize the value is to subtract the mean and divide by the standard deviation

Z= (X-μ)/δ~N(0;1)

P(Z<(60-82)/11)

P(Z<-2)= 0.02275

I hope it helps!

If your blood sugar is low from skipping lunch, what reaction will occur in yout liver cells
Artemon [7]

If a person skipped lunch is could cause a low blood sugar level and this will likely affect the liver cells in having it to react in which glycogenolysis occurs. This process in the liver cells is a way of breaking down glycogen in a way to fuel the body as it turns into glucose.
